Want to hear about an anxiety attack felt by Anne ? Well, here’s a good one.
Let me tell you.
I was happily able to attend a bible study in a small-town local Church of Christ. Come to find out, the Churches of Christ denomination practice Roman Catholic holidays and festivals. The Catholic Church is part of Babylon the Great, Satan’s empire of false religion. (Book of Revelation)
I sat down and noticed that every one of the 14 round tables has a Halloween bag sitting on a very dark spider web decoration in the middle of each table, all of which were purchased at the local dollar store by Karen, in her 80’s, who had told me when I assisted once with decorations, and only once, with last years Christmas decorations, that the decorating is her donation. I had purchased the cute snowmen and penguins and basically within 15 minutes decorated the 14 tables. Had I been the one decorating the tables, I would decorate with elegance. I’m the owner of Design and Consign, one of my companies and have a lifetime of design experience. My father was a designer. I grew up in homes that looked like the interiors of the Rockefellers. My dad designed them. That’s a little about me; Anne with an E.
Karen, literally asked me to leave after I had decorated the hall. This all in front of Anna, her lovely daughter-in-law who had just given birth to a beautiful baby girl.
Who actually asks someone to leave a church ? A carnal Christian does.This could only happen to me. You have got to have a sense of humor. You really do. And, by the way, Christmas, December 25 is not Jesus’s birthday. This church of Christ is literally deceptive when stating in their welcome flyers that Christmas day, December 25 was the day Jesus was born. Wrong !! History lessons are in order at the church.
So, I’m now sitting in this small-town Church of Christ when alarm bells are going off in my head. I sit at the table with Lindsey, a finely dressed very well-bred sister, and the first thing I mention is, “What’s up with the Halloween decorations ?” Lindsey mentions something about they didn’t want to offend Karen (I don’t recall her exact words).
Driven by Holy Spirit, I mention to Lindsey, God’s favorite King, Hezekiah, King of Judah. I recall Hezekiah because I wrote the screenplay which is with the Library of Congress called, “King Hezekiah.” I say, “Hezekiah was God’s favorite King because he had “the balls” to tear down the idols of Satan across the land of Judah,” in so many words. I’m thinking to myself, “I know not one man in this church has “the balls” to remove any of their pagan Catholic church holidays. This is where they were born, raised and learned about God, and this small-town church is their entire life.”
King Hezekiah (751 to 687 BC) was the son of pagan idolater, King Ahaz. When King Ahaz died, Hezekiah took the throne. The very first thing Hezekiah did with reliance on God, was to tear down the false gods and idols across the land of Judah. Hezekiah was renowned for his religious reforms in Judah becoming God’s favorite King as noted in Holy Scripture. (2 Kings 18:5) God knew even the embryo of Hezekiah when He created him, exactly like God knew even the embryo of me. (Jeremiah 1:5) (Psalm 138:13-16)
So, I mention this to Lindsey, and the fact that most men don’t have “the balls” like King Hezekiah, God’s favorite King to remove what offends God. Their intent is in pleasing humans, not God, and sitting across from me, she kindly picks up the demon bag and takes it out of my site. Thank you !
I was born the daughter of pagan idolaters, 4th generation Irish American Catholics from the Chicagoland area. In case you didn’t hear, “You do not want to mess with the Irish.” It’s in our DNA. Half of all American presidents were of Irish descent. We are strong and we are powerful. And actually, to tell the honest truth, come to think about it, my Christian life’s journey makes a lot of people written about in scripture, appear like they’re living in Mr. Roger’s neighborhood. No disrespect, but it is true. Am I strong because I’m Irish, or am I strong because I am “chosen,” anointed by God. My answer is both; being Irish and being “chosen,” are great to be. “Many are called, but few are chosen.” (Matthew 22:14) It means that God’s invitation to salvation is extended to everyone, but only a few will respond to that call and be “chosen” through their faith and Christlike conduct. This is illustrated in the Parable of the Wedding Banquet, where many people are invited to a king’s feast, but those who are ultimately allowed to stay are the ones who are properly prepared. True Christians are prepared through consistent Bible study, God’s Word of instruction.
But really, when my minor-17-year-old-virgin-body fled the home of my abusive narcissistic very artistically talented father, who never showed me an ounce of love, this all happening over 53 years ago, I was being groomed by Mr. Universe, Mr. America, Mr. Chicago, Jesse Rock Stonewall (google). I was being sexually trafficked. When “Easy” (his street name) told me he was a “pimp,” my question was, “What’s a pimp?” What the hell did I know? I was just a kid in my fourth high school, this one in the big windy city Chicago. A ward of the state classmate of mine living in a group home brought me into Jesse Rock Stonewalls, NuLife Health Food store he owned. I was being sold into slavery. Wait until I tell you how the “pimp” died. Another story to follow.
This is exactly why the prophet Joseph, son of Israel who was also sold into slavery at age 17 by his family is my most beloved of any and all of God’s chosen. By the way, you must understand, no human can come against God’s chosen because it is considered an act of opposition against God Himself, who has placed a divine-protection, or “covering,” on them. This protection means that any harm or attack against them is seen as an attack against God, and it is believed that God defends His anointed against their enemies, even while they face their own challenges.
I was blessed by God to have had the one and only vision in my lifetime which occurred with the voice of God after I was writing of my sisterly love for Joseph, son of Israel in Egypt on Facebook years ago while in California. I felt Joseph’s heartache as if it had happened to me. I felt Joseph’s pain being abandoned and betrayed by his brothers. I understand Joseph and why Joseph was God’s chosen to lead and sustain the promised nation of Israel. (Books of Genesis chapters 37-50; Exodus, Joshua, Psalms, Ezekiel, and many New Testament books include the story of Joseph).
So, if you are not aware that God’s chosen one’s endure a lot constantly throughout their lifetime, you’re gonna be sure to find out when you read my up and coming, soon to be published novel, “The First Book of Anne.” (copyright, 2025) Why did I mention about my 17 th year of my life ? It all ends up with where I am today and about to turn 70 years old. I’ve come a long way with God.
Ryan, the bible study conductor is also in charge of “missions” or going out and doing ‘good deeds,’ etc. (I guess, they rarely talk about any mission), and when Ryan asks everyone if they have any news to report, I ask, “what’s up with the Halloween bags ?” Ryan says something like, “their elder body discussed the Halloween bags and unitedly approve of them.”
This is about the time my “Irish temper” is stirring in me. Have they lost their minds? Are these men this far removed from truth ? I cannot describe the feeling except to say, “as expected.” The brother is so good and he truly means well. Everyone is looking at me now. An empath “chosen” one can read people exactly as they are, and exactly what they are feeling and more-than-likely what they are thinking. It’s a gift of the Holy Spirit.
I suffered the loss of my entire pagan family because I refused to practice these Catholic pagan holidays, beginning over a half-of-a-century ago, in 1974; and right now I am not happy about these Halloween bags on the table. A woman in the study even brings out how important Halloween is.
It wasn’t but a few weeks ago, when Jim at the same bible study, when Brent, an elder was conducting the study, that Jim mentioned that he had to leave a few churches due to something or other practices contrary to Holy Scripture. I mean, it was prior to the memorial of Jesus’s death and resurrection, this church called it “Easter” that I made it clear, the celebration of “Easter” is derived from a pagan fertility goddess named Eostre or Ostara honoring spring and the bunnies and eggs are associated with new life and rebirth. The pastor and all claim they don’t celebrate Easter(deception)with all their colored eggs, Easter baskets and bunny rabbits: fun for kids at the church. A lot of cognitive dissonance going on, huh ? They are celebrating Catholic holidays.
Please take note, it does not matter where a Christian sits, whether in a church or in a prison, Holy Spirit is with us and God will guide, protect and teach us His laws. All we have to do is ask. No one can come against us. (John 17:3) Holy Spirit does not reign in any church building. It reigns in people. It is said, that most chosen do not attend churches too. This is common knowledge.
So, needless to say, I felt as if I was going backwards sitting amongst Catholics again after over a half a century. Is there any safe place to go, to rest, to serve and learn about you Lord ? Not very many.
One lady at the bible study, unbeknown to me, claimed the significance of the practice of Halloween and the teacher “took no note” in front of the entire hall. (Google: Origins of Halloween and the Catholic Church)
Teach yourselves well folks. (James 3:1) “You cannot sit at the table of God and at the table of demons.” (1 Corinthian 10:21) Thank you Lindsey, for removing the demon off the table. Did they get the demon bags completely out of the church? Someone please take these bags out and use them as target practice. Send me Lord. Annie will get her gun: and knock them out of the hood. (Irving Berlin’s screenplay: Annie Get Your Gun !)
The absolute craziest thing this Church of Christ did on Halloween night is beyond comprehension for a former Catholic who went to every door in my childhood neighborhood, in a Halloween costume, and this church is claiming they do not celebrate Halloween. Why don’t they have a Christian movie and popcorn and snacks inside ? No, they call it a Harvest Festival taking place between 6 and 8 p.m. when it is dark outside and recommend on their flyers they’ve put everywhere, “costumes encouraged.” Hypocrisy at it’s finest ? I have contacted the pastor who was raised a “born again” Christian about their Easter and Halloween and Mike claims they do not do it. Halloween is a pedophile paradise. See google: What parents need to know about sex offenders on Halloween, etc. etc. etc. I just told you how I was a virgin child victim of a sexual predator above.
There’s even a man in this same church wearing a “freemason” belt buckle which they have been informed of. 33rd level Freemasons serve Satan. FACT: A curse could be upon the church if this man is not informed and his buckle removed. No excuses !
I bring out at the study about the Book of John which we are studying, and that John was “the disciple whom Jesus loved” multiple times. John was present at important events like the Last Supper, the Crucifixion, and the empty tomb, and Jesús’s actions toward John suggest a special relationship. Jesus loved John. Jesus instructed his mother to see the “Beloved Disciple” as her son and told the disciple, “Here is your mother.” Why John ? John was God’s apostle of love. (John 13:23, 19:26, 20:2, 21:7, 20)
Heavenly Father, I pray that my heart and my very being be as a “mother to all,” protecting women and children throughout my lifetime, and that You can say about me too, “here is your mother !” Let Your Kingdom Come soon, Lord. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us of our sins. Amen
Always Christian with LOVE,
By Anne Fisher-of-men. Amen !
